peter gariepy Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Admin Members/Groups/Content/Delete/Can Delete Own Content "On", But... How does a user delete a topic or comment? I cant seem to find it in User Interface anywhere. forums.aaca.org Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Jim M Posted February 1 Solution Share Posted February 1 You would need to enable that same permission for the member group you want to allow. They then would be able to delete their content in the same way a moderator would but for only their own. For example, to delete their own topic they would go to the topic -> click Moderator actions -> Delete. To delete a post, they would go to their post -> click the three dots in the top right of their post -> Delete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter gariepy Posted February 2 Author Share Posted February 2 Not working. What am I doing wrong? ie, group "members" users have no "delete", even with it correctly set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim M Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 You have it setup correctly and it is working. I logged in as a user in your member group and it appears for them. In the screenshot below, I logged in as the user "M" and then clicked the three dots and can then click delete (I didn't here): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peter gariepy Posted February 3 Author Share Posted February 3 see screen dumps.... group "members" are set correctly user is a member of group "members" Still no delete available to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teraßyte Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 Your issue is that it's the first post. First posts never have the delete option. To delete them, you need to delete the topic itself. Your user can find the Delete (topic) option in the Moderation Actions menu above instead. Marc Stridgen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
